Abstract
An expanding holder for beverage containers includes a body having a cavity configured to receive a lower portion of a beverage container. An outer wall defines an outer circumference of the body, and an interior surface of the outer wall defines a perimetral surface of the cavity. A bottom is coupled with a lower portion of the outer wall and an inner surface of the bottom defines a lower surface of the cavity. The outer wall includes an elastic insulating material having an ultimate elongation of least 100%, and wherein the outer wall is configured to snugly accommodate a variety of beverage containers in the cavity.
